A Great Time Fishing
Half Day Trip – Shared - 11:30 AM on October 3, 20252 adults

We went out with Captain Andrew, the most Australian man you’ll ever meet. The day was one of the windiest days and the weather didn’t cooperate, but Andrew took us to many spots to give us a chance even though we were fighting the wind. The fish were definitely a little shy with the weather change, but we still managed to catch a few. We came out to the whitsundays for our honeymoon and this was a great way to see the islands and spend some time on the water. My wife came out and also had a great time! I would highly recommend going on a charter with the get out and about crew! Even if you don’t catch anything the captain and the scenery are great!

Every box ticked
Full Day Trip – Shared on November 6, 20251 adult

Had a great day out with Andrew today! He asked me about my goals for the day: 1. Catch some different species. 2. Catch a good sized fish for a picture and to eat. 3. Hook into something big. Andrew brought me to different spots and on the fish. At the end of the day al boxes were ticked off. Caught quite a bit of different species, caught a nice size coral trout and got sharked by a big bull shark! Worth every dollar for the fishing and the good company by Andrew ;) Highly recommended!

Reported catch:
Coral Trout
Red Emperor Snapper

Good fishing, great company, despite weather
3/4 Day Trip – Shared on July 9, 20262 adults

It is never easy to find fish when unusual weather sets in, but Andrew has a bunch of favourite spots from which he can pick and connected us to fish. The skipper made the trip interesting and enjoyable enough that when we found an opportunity to go out the next day, we grabbed it. We will be returning customers.

thanks Andrew. real pleasure having you both on board, both days 😁 hopefully next time the weather will be calmer. 🤞 Andrew.
